Neil Young Archives Vol 1: 1963-1972, the first in a series of archival box sets encompassing Young’s entire career, originally released in 2009, has been reissued. The collection, out of print for over a decade, arrived as an 8-disc CD box, on November 17, 2023, via Reprise Records.
The 8-CD box set is being re-issued in its original format – housed in the “Garypak,” a unique package designed by Young’s longtime art director, the late Gary Burden. Each CD has its own custom sleeve.
From the Sept. 29 announcement: The start of a musician’s career is not only an intriguing collection of what happened, but maybe even more important is a gaze into what their future might hold. With musical artist Neil Young, Archives Vol 1: 1963-1972 offers the sounds of his first decade, but just as importantly holds a light on the future of what’s to come. Young’s world of sound and spirit remains a never-ending adventure. It starts here.
At the time of release in 2009, 13 of the songs had never been released before. A further 34 tracks were previously unreleased live or alternate versions. The repertoire covers the first decade of Neil Young’s career, including material from the Squires, Buffalo Springfield, Crazy Horse, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and his early solo albums.
The box set comes with a 24-page booklet and a large fold-out Archives poster.
The complete track listing appears below the Amazon links.
